Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) on Thursday
urged the Union Government to enact a separate law to prevent the
increasing incidents of honour killings in the country. M.P. Rajesh, all
India president of DYFI said on Thursday after visiting the
parents of E. Ilavarasan at the Dharmpuri Government Medical College
Hospital that caste-based political parties were responsible for the
honour killings.

DYFI was of the opinion that the
death of Ilavarasan was shrouded in mystery, and hence, the government
should order a CBI inquiry to unravel the truth, he said. Those
responsible for the death of Ilavarasan should be brought before law as
it was another incident of honour killing. DYFI would extend all help to
his family members.

Khap panchayats in the north and
katta panchayats in the south were causing honour killings. Last year
330 cases relating to killing of youngsters were registered. This year
during the first five months 13 honour killings have been reported.
Honour killings were a shame on society.

Mr. Rajesh
said that Dravidian parties were contributing least to end honour
killings as they were afraid of losing caste-based vote banks. With a
view to encourage casteless marriages, the DYFI had launched a website
for inter-caste marriages.

Senior leader of Communist Party of India
(CPI) R. Nallakannu said that a fair investigation would be carried out
by the Justice Singaravelu Commission of Inquiry appointed by the State
Government.The commission should recommend the government measures to
stop recurrence of such incidents in future. Earlier, the police
prevented Mr. Nallakannu from visiting the mortuary to see the body of
Ilavarasan.
